About Wedding Cakes & Wedding Chocolate in South Africa

Wedding cakes in South Africa have become more creative and inventive than ever before. While some couples choose traditional wedding cakes, tiered fruit cakes iced in white, others are going for original wedding cakes in chocolate or any other flavour, iced in colourful designs to match their wedding theme. It has also become popular to "accessorise" the wedding cake with such decorations as jewellery and toppers.

The wedding cake tradition began with little wheat cakes that were broken over the bride's head to bring good luck and fertility. Every guest would then eat a crumb to ensure the bridal couple's good fortune. Nowadays it is said that sleeping with a piece of wedding cake under her pillow allows a single woman dream of her future husband.

Cutting the wedding cake is one of the ritual celebrations at the reception. Browse our directory of makers of fine wedding cakes in South Africa for inspiration to make your mouth water!
